Max and Douglas add to the cast of Anarchy Reigns

Anarchy Reigns, the upcoming online beat-'em-up from Platinum Games, has two more characters in its ranks.

Meet Max and Douglas. Max uses Positron Blades and a Tesla Blitz, while Douglas wields “The Twins" — Romeo and Juliet, a pair of hand-mounted weapons. Just a random guess, but like the Shakespearian lovers, we think the blades might inflict a lot of pain and cause countless people to die horribly.

Max and Douglas join a roster of characters that includes Bayonetta and Jay Cayman of MadWorld.

Anarchy Reigns is scheduled to release on July 3. Watch the trailers below for a closer glimpse of the characters.
